Continental Line Standing Firing

This toy soldier is a replica of the Continental Line Standing Firing No.2 1777-87, used during the American War of Independence. 

The French government supplied large quantities of muskets to the Continental Army, with the most popular being the Modèle 1777 from the armory in Charleville-Mézières, France. This musket was so widely used that all French muskets became known as 'Charlevilles.' It was also copied and produced in other countries such as Austria, Belgium, and Prussia. To prevent theft, George Washington implemented a resolution to stamp firearms as United States property. This 1/30 scale toy soldier is a one-piece set with a matte finish, making it a reliable and accurate representation of the historic weapon.
